*New performance standards for broiler and turkey carcasses were implemented July 1, 2011.
§Establishment category, which is based on the most recent two sets completed.
+FSIS is now rounding down the allowable positives for Category 1 status for those product classes having odd numbered standards or guidelines. Therefore the current performance standards will be: Broiler (Category 1: ≤2 vs ≤3 Salmonella positive results), Ground Beef (Category 1: ≤2 vs ≤3 Salmonella positive results), and Ground Turkey (Category 1: ≤14 vs ≤15 Salmonella positive results). |
